Toy Story Inspired Cake
Where do we start?! When Angie called and gave us her idea for this "Toy Story" cake, we couldn't wait to get it done and see her wonderful idea come to life. Of course Woody was the inspiration, so bits of his costume were put together in a vanilla cake with buttercream icing. The hat was rice krispie treats covered with homemade modeling chocolate and the bandana, #6 and cow print were also made from our modeling chocolate. Two dozen sugar cookies were iced with royal icing, dusted with edible gold luster dust and all the kids got to be "sheriff" for the day. Your idea transfered into a great cake, Angie. Happy birthday, Houston!

Kendall moved up in daycare and so a cake for the teachers she was leaving behind was a way of saying "thank you " for their TLC. This is a strawberry cake with buttercream icing and serves about 12 people. Love our Kendall!
Farmer Fisher
This cake is vanilla with buttercream icing and serves 25 people. Fisher loves tractors so we made it from our modeling chocolate as well as the rooster and the cow print. The barn is rice krispie treats covered with icing and the pigs are also made from icing. Happy Birthday Fisher!

Paisley Pink and Green Baby Shower
This was a 25 serving cake and was vanilla with chocolate buttercream icing. All we knew was that the nursery was decorated in these colors, so we borrowed the beautiful, handmade pillow, which is behind the cake, to match. Congrats to the mommy-to-be and we hope you enjoyed it.

Dora's House
We were excited when Cassandra asked us to do a 3-D Dora house with a train for Bridget's 2nd birthday. Where do I start? The train is all cake trimmed in modeling chocolate with laminates of Dora, Boots, and Diego riding in the cars. And of course Swiper is hiding on the porch ready to swipe the #2 candle. The house is vanilla cake with buttercream icing. The roof is rice krispie treats covered in modeling chocolate. The door and the flower pot on the porch were also made of modeling chocolate. The porch is rice krispie treats covered with icing. The cake board is wood, covered with fondant and trimmed with ribbon. The house and train cars were about 75-80 servings of cake, and the roof and porch had about 40 servings of rice krispie treats. We absolutely loved the way this turned out. Cassandra, thanks for your patience while we set up the cake. Happy Birthday Bridget!

Butterflies, Butterflies, Butterflies!!
We did a flower/butterfly cake for Brooke last year for her 6th birthday, and she fell in love with the little butterflies on her cake, so we suggested a cake covered in butterflies for her 7th, and it was a hit! This cake feeds 28 and is a vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream, and is completely covered in about 65 handmade butterflies made from our modeling chocolate. The message written on the cake board is written in pink royal icing, and even has a few smaller pink butterflies fluttering around. Happy birthday, Brooke. You're growing up so fast!
Ladybug 1st Birthday
This ladybug-themed cake is so cute for a little girl's 1st birthday. Both cakes are vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream icing, and are topped off with decorations made from our modeling chocolate. Actually, everything black is modeling chocolate, along with the small, pink ladybugs on the larger cake. The larger cake feeds about 20-25, and the ladybug is Rylee's very own smash cake. We hope this was a hit! Thanks, Andrea, for allowing us to be a part of Rylee's first birthday.
